NDSU Men’s Basketball Claims #2 Seed in Conference Tournament

The Summit League Men's Basketball Tournament tips off on Saturday and the North Dakota State Bison will begin their run at a potential NCAA Tournament birth.

The Bison (19-10, 11-5) have earned the #2 seed in the conference tournament, and they'll take on #7 seed IUPUI (13-17, 7-9) Saturday at 8:30 p.m. The game will be televised by Midco Sports Network and can be streamed on ESPN3.

Prior to the NDSU game Saturday night, #1 seed South Dakota (21-10, 12-4) will take on the #8 seed Western Illinois (8-19, 5-11) at 6 p.m.

The other quarterfinal games of the conference tournament will take place Sunday night: #4 South Dakota State vs. #5 Denver and #3 Omaha vs. #6 Fort Wayne.

Should North Dakota State advance to the semifinal round, they would take on the winner of Omaha and Fort Wayne on Monday night.
